Khabib Nurmagomedov silenced Conor McGregor at UFC 229.
One of the biggest fights in UFC history has been uploaded to YouTube free of cageside commentary, allowing fans to clearly hear what the fighters and their cornermen had to say on that fateful night in Las Vegas on Oct. 6, 2018.
Watch the video below.
Nurmagomedov dominated McGregor for the majority of their contest, using his trademark wrestling to ground the Irish knockout artist and even getting the better of the striking in Round 2 when he staggered McGregor with a lightning-fast right hand. The end came when Nurmagomedov took McGregor’s back in the fourth round and forced him to submit to a neck crank.
In the newly released clip, Nurmagomedov can be heard taunting McGregor after having to put up with months of trash talk. We also get snippets of the tactical advice from both fighters’ corners as well as Herb Dean doing his best to control the chaos.
At one point, when Nurmagomedov is brutalizing McGregor with ground-and-pound in the second round, his cornerman and cousin Abubakar shouts, “Kill him!”
Nurmagomedov was so heated at the end of the contest, that he shouted “I f*cked you up, bitch!” in Russian according to the UFC’s translation. Not shown in the clip is Nurmagomedov exiting the cage and attacking McGregor’s cornerman Dillon Danis shortly after, an action that sparked a wild brawl and led to suspensions for all the parties involved.
As a bonus, the uploaded clip also includes commentary-free replays of Alex Pereira’s epic knockout of Jiri Prochazka from their recent UFC 303 rematch, and Jack Della Maddalena’s vicious third-round KO of Gilbert Burns at UFC 299.
